Planning Institutions

Planning and policing are two critical racial projects in the racial state. Planning scholars’ understanding of the police usually focuses on the police violently removing people from urban space, yet critical criminology literature shows their function to be more diverse. I employ an exploratory case study, centered in the South Side of Chicago, to develop propositions to guide emergent research that centralizes the police within planning. The propositions (1) impel further investigation into how police not only exclude people but also define who belongs and (2) draw attention to how planning institutions can create new forms of police.

Political projects of belonging are concerned with sentiments of being ‘at home’ within specific collectivities, rooted in entanglements of people’s social locations, narratives of identification, and value regimes at varying intersections. Global history attests to the numerous ways in which modes of belonging have been juridified and legally restricted, and how legal categories have become populated and turned into markers of identity, thus revealing the politics of belonging as a normative project par excellence. In the shadows of accelerating globalization, recent decades have brought about an ever-diversifying and heavily contested multitude of identity politics, in light of which the time-honoured politics of belonging is bound to persist as a crucial concern for law and anthropology in the twenty-first century. Charting the contours of this complex terrain, this chapter engages with citizenship as an arguably still dominant, if not hegemonic, political identity as well as with alternative political projects of belonging. Zooming in on closely related territorial modes of belonging—ethnicity, nationhood/nationalism, diaspora, indigeneity, identities conventionally described as ‘autochthony’, and citizenship—it proposes an overarching framework of ‘contested autochthonies’ which allows the cross-cutting constructions of individual-territory-group triads, and their mutual interactions, to be studied at shifting scales. Against the backdrop of a case study of conflicting autochthonies in the South African postcolony, the chapter concludes by highlighting the close interdependencies between the (re)production of distributed senses of belonging and the attendant (re)distribution of belongings—and thus the need for an integrated analysis of recognition and (re)distribution in the politics of belonging.

Malang as the second largest city in East Java province become crowded recently. The congestion almost happens everyday. The scenery of the street corridor is full of iron stacks. It is said that Malang city is less comfortable and less walkable. The decrease of this environment encourages to conduct the study (Q.S. 16:90, Q.S. 96:1-5, Q.S. 30:41). The study aimed to analyze the thermal comfort at pedestrian ways around Malang city squares, the street corridor of Merdeka Alun-Alun (MAA) and the Tugu Alun-Alun (TAA). The temperature and relative humidity were measured by multinorm instrument. The THI (Temperature Humidity Index) method was used to analyze the thermal comfort. The results showed that the THI average at TAA (27) were more comfortable than at MAA (27,5). The south side of the MAA corridor became the most comfortable with the THI value of 26,4, which the side covered by trees canopy (Q.S. 7:58). It needs to conduct next research (Q.S. 13:11), because of the change of the activities at these street corridors.

AbstractThis paper attempts to give new explanation for the expression agrïp yok bol- occurring in 9th line of the south side of the Bilgä Kagan Inscription. After a thorough survey of former research and several Chinese sources, the authors came to the conclusion that this expression must be a euphemistic expression for being beheaded in a battle. The authors found also that kog säŋün was Guo Yingjie 郭英傑. In sum, the sentence in question is to be read as ulug oglum agrïp yok bolča kog säŋünüg balbal tikä bertim ‘When my oldest son died of a disease, I readily erected General Kog as a balbal (for him).’ The expression agrïp yok bol- is to be regarded as a euphemistic expression for being beheaded in a battle.
